@4f3f2c95 try can you try swiping down from the top middle of the screen and see if the alert is still there? I haven’t clicked on the X close button from there, but I did somehow make the notification disappear when it first appeared during the sound blast. 

 @4f3f2c95 Hmm, interesting. What phone are you using? I use an iPhone 14 and it was only a 1 second blast. And I can see the notification when I swipe down on my screen, even tho I dismissed it at the time. 

 @b541bfe5 haha it just happened in my phone; and it was a lot less alarming than I expected, given all the warnings. 

It did give me a bit of a jolt (I was reading my Mastodon feed) but it was only a one-second blast and wasn’t so loud that you’d really hear it more than a few rooms away in a house. 

 @452504bc awwww so cuuuute! 

 @ab2d1fe1 it’s exasperating that at least two of these men had grey hair in this picture, and they’re referred to as young guns. 😂 😬 

 @ab2d1fe1 OK it took me awhile, but I get it now.

 @42f885d0 oh no! Are you the one with a blocked salivary gland? And if so, what does that feel like? Is it swollen? 
I hope you get it sorted soon! :BigBlobhajHug: 

 @5664fe04 ahh, the predecessor to the woodie car; a classic! 😆 

 @836a5055 :BigBlobhajHug: 

 @d0154568 yeah, I’ve learned to just smile and say thank you. I realized that diminishing or downplaying  whatever they complimented me about was basically dismissing their opinion. Not my intention, ofc, but that’s how it feels to be on the receiving end of it, I’ve noticed.

I learned to stop trying to disagree with other people’s arbitrary, positive opinion just b/c it happens to be aimed at me. My opinion about myself doesn’t diminish theirs. 

 @014c1672 ooh yes that style looks very dapper on you! 

 @3217597c wow, what a glowing review! :blobaww: 

 @014c1672 not too late at all!

What kind of hat is it? 

 @8b66d6de Totally understandable; no worries. Thanks for giving it a listen! 🙏 

 @71247a99 @b541bfe5 @d0154568 @cfe163c8 @1854e8be @c5dffaf5 

I try, but the ADHD does make it more challenging. :sadness: 

 @3daeee8a I refuse to believe this is a real animal and not a toddler in the cutest and most detailed Halloween costume ever. 

 @71247a99 @b541bfe5 @d0154568 @cfe163c8 @1854e8be @c5dffaf5 

Aaah THANK YOU for posting the meme! I was trying to find it in my memes folder, but alas, I think it got ferreted away in another (probably unrelated) folder.

Now I have it again, and will cherish it always. ❤️ 

 @d0154568 @cfe163c8 @1854e8be @b541bfe5 @c5dffaf5 

I like to use the phrase “What up, nerds!” If they take issue with that, I know they are not my people. 

And of course, signing off with the classic, “Stay fresh Cheesebags™️” 

 @522688fd Wow! 

 I see from the lack of responses to my question that y’all are also probably not good about receiving remembering compliments. Or perhaps you’re just too modest to even want to mention them? :welp: 

 @376e9712 Shhh! 😉 

 @3daeee8a those rats are going directly into his brain. 

 @072c6ef2 yeah I figured that out once I couldn’t find Bytecry by Weevil on there. 
I wasn’t a Mac user until 2008 so I missed out! 

 @3daeee8a SO FLUFFY 

 @072c6ef2 
Your music list brought back a lot of nostalgia for me, so I made a playlist.

Thanks for the new music discoveries! ❤️

 @d0154568 it’s the simple things 

 @8a5f4100 😂 
@80dbd484 

 @d0154568 I’m sorry I just can’t abide the character or their use as a plot device. 

 I’m surprised no one has questioned the inclusion of Ace of Base, but maybe everyone here already knows why. 🤔 

 @8b66d6de also based on the style of music you make, you might enjoy my other song, The Waterfall, more than Holy Grail. ;) 

 @8b66d6de thanks so much for listening and letting me know you enjoyed it!

I listened to your EP; I think Handsel is my favorite. That drop is crazy! And I like how you transitioned back into the main theme on pipes afterwards! 

 @8b88f271 oh thank you so much! And thanks for listening! 🙏 :blobaww: 

 @8b88f271 I usually don’t listen to a lot of ambient music b/c I get bored easily (thanks, ADHD!) but this has a good amount of variation in it to hold my interest. The arrangement is very well done! ❤️ 

 @7e2098e2 😂 

 @fd38d0b5 😂 

 Well now someone in the neighbor is mowing. 😭 🤬 I guess I’ll do some laundry and work out in the meantime. 🏃‍♀️

“You don’t need 200 shirts to commemorate every blood donation, Earl. 

Put them on RIGHT NOW. YES ALL OF THEM. HOW DOES THAT FEEL??” 

 @3911a5be OMG that sounds awesome. :catPOWER:

Who’s a good subwoofer?
Who’s a good subwooferrrr?
Who’s a good subwoofie-woofie? 

 @8b88f271 this is so pretty! 

 @25856cfe I’m so sorry for your loss. What a beautiful kitty ❤️ 

 @c02fb0a2 yeah it’s tricky. I had to go two towns over to get mine. Husband is scheduled for next week in a (third) different town!
